Where to Snag Sweet Sufganiyot for Hanukkah in Chicago | Eater Chicago

"A staple Jewish deli with multiple suburban locations that sticks to classic sufganiyah flavors—raspberry jelly, chocolate custard, and vanilla custard—taking pre-orders and frying and selling them through the holiday season for pickup at its Highland Park, Northbrook, and Winnetka shops." - Naomi Waxman

Another "Once Upon" spots and first time at this one! Pictured here are their bagels for the day, and their Corned Beef Sandwich (on Rye Bread with mustard, and a pickle slice). Generous amount of Corned Beef as well as mustard. Not pictured here, but also grabbed a couple of whole tomatillos. Both pickles and tomatillos are seasoned perfectly. Steady flow of customers (regulars and first-timers) coming in and out. Friendly service here like other locations. A "Once Upon a Grill" is also in the same plaza.

I’ve been a happy customer coming here for many years and never had anything I didn’t enjoy. The food here has always been served fresh and delicious! I particularly would recommend their soft bagels and many cream cheeses as well as the Matzo Ball Soup (pictured) and the Gourmet Everything Flatbread Matzos. The Mish Mosh soup is also delicious! My go-to for authentic Jewish cuisine! They’ve earned my highest recommendation and so glad they survived the pandemic.

I really enjoy the NY Lean corned beef sandwich. They pike the meat on high. Their soup are very good as well. I especially like the chicken wild rice, and you can’t forget the bagels.

this place is phenomenal. I went into try a sandwich and I asked them to make me something of their choosing. I received a pastrami and corned beef cold sandwich on a hot onion bagel and it was absolutely exceptional. I will continue to come back for meats and bagels from this amazing establishment.

Food: lean corned beef on toasted rye, NY style (= extra meat) is good. Now if that rye could actually be toasted, as asked.... Service: either the orders aren't taken down correctly or the orders aren't followed by the cooks, but what is ordered and what is received may not match depending on the time of visit. The workers correct the errors when reported but based on our last visit perhaps one should be surprised when their order is made right. Atmosphere: '70s-style all the way.

Breakfast is generally good here. But a recent corned beef sandwich had me wondering what the meat really was. Obviously not freshly cut, but from a pan cut in the past. No flavor at all.

Pastries had too much sugar for my tastes.

I picked up a beautiful fish tray today. Have you had them on the tray was delicious. It was a ton of food, and all of the salads bagels and everything we got from there was perfect. I know where I’m going in the future whenever I want to host a brunch!
